"Really nice warung with nice outdoor seating area. Still relaxing even though next to busy road. Food came out quick and the staff were friendly. I enjoyed the Nasi ayam"

"The place is a typical Warung and mostly serves locals. If you can speak a bit of Bahasa it helps as they have little to no English. As they sat us down, we asked for the menu but apparently there is not such thing as they serve only one dish available. So we obliged and awaited for the surprised dish, we figured it must be tasty and somewhat well-balanced. They also sold us "freshly squeezed" orange juice which was probably half orange watered down up to 3/4 of the glass.
When the food arrived it was stone cold and consisted of a bit of white rice and broken up boiled chicken with a couple of green leaves and a quarter of overboiled egg. The taste was very bland and tasted just like the ingredients mentioned, boiled rice and boiled dry chicken. If this was the delicacy that was so well praised in the previous comments, so be it, we can make peace with these cold and bland flavors but when they charge you almost 150k rs for it, you just realize that, they not only dont care about the food they serve, they are also not interested in creating returning customers and have very little respect for foreigners. This is such a shame as we were hoping for some authentic food experience. We dont mind paying for decent food and or the experience but this was almost like a slap in the face. Fingers crossed we won't get sick from cold food that has been sitting there for hours..."
